Abstract
A low-lying conical intersection of the S1 and S2 potential energy surfaces of pyrazine is identified and modelled by a two-state three-mode vibronic coupling Hamiltonian. The quantum dynamics of this model is studied. The results explain qualitatively the essentially structureless bandshape of the S2 absorption spectrum and reveal details about the femtosecond population decay of the S2 state.
